"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

hey guys. gonna make this short..I don't know a whole lot about training other than some basics but here's my situation. I havent played ice hockey competitively since I was 18. I am 25 now and wanna get back in. Problem is, I am about 15 lbs overweight...Now I've seen alot of stuff on here but it seems mostly geard to "cutting up" and "bulking up". What are some steps to take? I need to regain my stamina, increase muslce strength and flexibility, and improve explosiveness. My upper body and legs really need work. Any suggestions, sites, etc? I searched T-mag but couldn't find anything helpful. And since I still have a few lbs to lose, I wonder if that complicates what I need to do. If you can't help, don't reply to this, if you've ever trained for a sport like this, let me know.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

There are some great books at your library on training for hockey. I would also highly recommend you buy a pair of inline skates and use those for off-ice training.

make sure to get alot of rest. I read that Tampa Bay has the most off days of any team and they are the most fit.

That might be true, but I'm willing to bet that the intensity at which they train on their 'on' days is higher than that of most other teams... nothing in life is cheap.

the reason tampa bay has so many off days is because they don't want dave andreychuk to get a heart attack from overworking, the guy is older then stonehenge.

Didnt Andreychuk retire since he finally won the cup? Not that it really matters I guess, the whole league is "retired" at the moment...
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
